The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 4 hrs and quenched with water. It was then extracted with chloroform, washed well with 5% Na2S2O3 and the organic layer dried over anhydrous MgSO4. It was filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by silica-gel column chromatography by eluting it with 30% ethyl acetate:hexane. The product, 2-(5-methoxy-1-benzofuran-3-yl)ethyl iodide, was obtained as a brown liquid. Yield: 1.1 g (73%); (M+H): 302.
